American Spirit Overture John Edmondson

Vergriffen (Restexemplare bei uns noch lieferbar!) / Permanently out of Print (we still sell our remaining stock)

An easy arrangement of Chester, America (My Country 'tis of Thee) and America the Beautiful. The piece starts with an introduction based on America the Beautiful in 4/4 and moves into Chester, both in the key of Bb. After a caesura, the key shifts to F and the time signature to 3/4 for the slower America. A brief snare solo in 4/4 ushers in the new faster tempo for America the Beautiful, which is back in Bb.
